1. BEAUTIFUL BRIDE
Unified diversity
Functioning as one body
Every part encouraged by the other
No one independent of another
You're irreplaceable, indispensable
You're incredible
Incredible
Beautiful bride
Body of Christ
One flesh abiding
Strong and unifying
Fighting ends in forgiveness
Unite and fight all division
Beautiful bride
Strengthen your arms now
Train your fingers for battle
Urgency's here now
Train your fingers for battle
Fighting this violence
With your feet wrapped in peace
Sad tears and silence
Now screams of joy
Victory
Beautiful bride
Body of Christ
One flesh abiding
Strong and unifying
Fighting ends in forgiveness
Unite and fight all division
Beautiful bride
Beautiful bride
Body of Christ
One flesh abiding
Strong and unifying
We're not gonna fall and forget
How far You went to pick us up
If one part's hurt the whole body's sick
If one part mourns we all mourn with Him
Rejoice, and we'll sing with you
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Beautiful bride
Body of Christ
One flesh abiding
Strong and unifying
Fighting ends in forgiveness
Unite and fight all division
Beautiful bride
2. AGAIN
I love the way that your heart breaks
with every injustice and deadly fate
Praying it all be new
and living like it all depends on you
Here you are down on your knees again
trying to find air to breathe again
Only surrender will help you now
I love you please see and believe again
I love that you’re never satisfied
with face value wisdom and happy lies
you take what they say and go back and cry
you’re so close to me that you nearly died
Here you are down on your knees again
trying to find air to breathe again
Only surrender will help you now
I love you please see and believe again
They don’t have to understand
you be still
wait and know I understand
you be still
be still
Here you are down on your knees again
trying to find air to breathe again
Only surrender will help you now
The floodgates are breaking
and pouring out
Here you are down on your knees
trying to find air to breathe
right where I want you to be again
I love you please see and believe again
Here you are down on your knees again
trying to find air to breathe again
Right where I want you to be again
See and believe!
3. CHASM
Break up already wake up now
walk away take it all back now
Don’t be quick to lick the scab off
your spitting in his face with the rest of them
Break up already wake up now
walk away take it all back now
Don’t be quick to lick the scab off
your spitting in his face with the rest of them
Please give me something
I’m so thirsty, I’m so thirsty
Oh please, let me warn them, Don’t you come here, don’t bring anyone here.
The chasm isn’t fixed yet. Take this water
Drinking ever deeper.. living water.
The chasm isn’t fixed yet. Take this water
Drinking ever deeper.. living water.
Please give me something I’m so thirsty
Oh, please.. let me warn them.
Don’t you come here, don’t bring anyone here
Please…
Please give me something
I’m so thirsty I'm so thirsty
Oh, Please.. let me warn them.
Don’t you come here, don’t bring anyone here
4. MISSING
I saw the queen
Swam out below her star on sea beneath
Though I lifted up my hands to her
She never lifted me
Oh something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me
As lovers left me to bleed alone
Found something sweet
On the island with daughters of eve
But through thick and thin they've gone away and only left their grief
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me
As lovers left me to bleed alone
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me
As lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
Something missing in me
Down here love wasn't' meant to be
It wasn't meant to be for me
All is vanity underneath the sun
All is vanity
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me
As lovers left me to bleed alone
5. THIS CLOSE
I had a dream that we were dead
But we pretended we still lived
With no regrets, we never bled
And we took everything life could give
And came up broken, empty handed in the end
In the hearts of the blind
Something you'll never find
Is a vision of light
With the voice of the dead, I'm screaming
I dont know who I am anymore
Not once in life have I been real
But I've never felt this close before
I've been looking in your window
I've been dressing in your clothes
I've been walking dead
Watching you
Long enough to know I can't go on
Had a dream that fire fell
From an opening in the sky
And someone warned me of this hell
And I spit in his naive eye
And left him crying for my soul
He said would die
In the hearts of the blind
Something you'll never find
Is a vision of light
With the voice of the dead, I'm screaming
I dont know who I am anymore
Not once in life have I been real
But I've never felt this close before
I've been looking in your window
I've been dressing in your clothes
I've been walking dead
Watching you
Long enough to know I can't go on
In the hearts of the blind
Something you'll never find
Is a vision of light
With the voice of the dead, I'm screaming
I dont know who I am anymore
Not once in life have I been real
But I've never felt this close before
I've been looking in your window
I've been dressing in your clothes
I've been walking dead
Watching you
Long enough to know I can't go on
I've been looking in your window
I've been dressing in your clothes
I've been walking dead
Watching you
Long enough to know I can't go on
6. THE KIND
Its like being in love
You rob your own mind
And defile your bed
You ignore the fate
Of the players who
Both end up dead
And you pretend for us
And you pretend for them
This fairy tale will make them jealous of you
But its not the kind
The kind you talked about
And its just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind
She is feeding you
And you lie with her
And for the first time your right arm becomes useful
As you sin with it
You wanna cut it off
But instead you thank god for all of the wrong you do
But its not the kind
The kind you talked about
And its just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind
She is feeding you
And you lie with her
And for the first time your right arm becomes useful
As you sin with it
You wanna cut it off
But instead you thank god for all of the wrong you do
Yeah well then you thought wrong
'Cause you can't serve God and money
You can serve one or the other
You cut the cord today
With God’s hand
To hold yours steady
He waits for you to apply the pressure
The warmth of His breath
Wrapped in His words
As He repeats His Truth after Truth after Truth after Truth
And its just the kind
The kind you talked about
And its just the kind
That clothes your mind with Christ
He is feeding you
And you know the truth
And I pray this is the last song I will sing to you
And its just the kind
The kind you talk about
And its just the kind
That clothes your mind with Christ
He is feeding you
And you know the truth
And I pray this is the last song I will sing to you
I’m sorry Father
I’m sorry sister
I’m sorry brother
I’m sorry Father
I’m sorry Father
I’m sorry sister
I’m sorry brother
I’m sorry everybody
7. IN THE DARK
I’ve written songs
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, in the dark
I’ve felt inspired
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, in the dark
I hide myself
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, in the dark
Used to be afraid
Of the dark, of the dark, of the dark, of the dark
Those in the light know we die
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, in the dark
There’s only artificial light here
My flaws hide well here
I used to be afraid of cluttered noises
Now I’m afraid of silence
Fill this space
Idle words
I’m scared to death of light and silence
Jesus kill me inside this
Raise me up to live again
Like you did, like you did
Now I am mute despite myself
All of them are gone
The silence overtakes me
The idle words forsake me
And I am left to face me
I’m held accountable
For every idle word
Curse the idle words
I’m scared to death of light and silence
Jesus kill me inside this
Raise me up to live again
Like you did, like you did
Glory shows up
Exposes us
I’m naked here
Forsaken here
By the dark
By the dark
Damn the dark
I’m scared to death of light and silence
Jesus kill me inside this
Raise me up to live again
Like you did, like you did
8. SET APPART THIS DREAM
Close your eyes little girl
You’re a princess now
You own this world
Twirling in your twirly dress
You’re the loveliest far above the rest
You build your castles in the skies
Stars reflecting off your eyes
And angels sing on silver clouds
And no one cries screams or shouts
Oh set apart this dream
Oh set apart this dream for me
Set apart this dream for me
Close your eyes pretty girl
'Cause its easier when you brace yourself
Set your thoughts on a world far off
Where we only cry from joy
Oh set apart this dream
Oh set apart this dream for me
Set apart this dream for me
Oh lovely and beautiful
Precious and priceless
You’re so much more than you know
Heart of the purest gold
Pure clean and white snow
Clothed in such splendor
Oh what a beauty for me
Set apart this dream
Set apart this dream
Oh set apart this dream (Set apart this dream)
Oh set apart this dream for me (Set apart this dream)
Set apart this dream for me
9. SWEPT AWAY
Help help help
Out out out out out out out
Now now now now now
Evil fell from your pretty mouth
Wrapped in your classic voice
Angelic in your syntax
Demonic in your motive
Your pretty eyes don’t know that
The water flowing from this well isn’t fresh
Demolish all that sets you up against your rising up
Confessing all that’s broken and watch the healing come
Spread out your open hands
Admit you’ve held them shut
Turn all the way around
Be swept away by this
Time for surrender
Spread out your open hands
And He will raise you up
Confessing all that’s broken
And watch the healing come
Spread out your open hands
Admit you’ve held them shut
Be swept away by this
Your clothes are smooth and spotless
The air is putrid sewage
Downwind of your pressed church clothes
Your eyes are black and empty
Your deeds are just for showing
How big and bright your fake smile glows
I see you moving and they're getting scared
Their eyes are focusing on something else
You're staring at me and I stare at you
I rage against everything that you do
See them surrender
Spread out your open hands
And he will raise you up
Confessing all that’s broken
Look at the healing come
Spread out your open hands
Admit you’ve held them shut
Be swept away by this
I see you moving and they're getting scared
Their eyes are focusing on something else
You're staring at me and I stare at you
I rage against everything that you do
Get this hell out out of my way
There’s nothing more that you can say so
Get this hell out get this hell out out out of my way
So get this hell out get this hell out out out of my way
We spread our open hands
And He is rising up
Repairing all that broken
Look at the healing come
We spread our open hands
Forgiveness holds them up
We’re swept away by this
Out out out out out out
Now now now now now now
10. TINY HEART
Tiny heart
Stuck inside yourself
When will you open up for me
I love you so
I wanna meet you again
Before one of us must go
Your lips touched every hand but mine
If you choose me, I’m waiting for you
If you choose me, I’m waiting for you
Always waiting
Tiny heart
You're not by yourself
When will you recognize the beat
Of my own heart
Grieving in your hand
You crush me when you run that way
Your lips touched every hand but mine
If you choose me, I’m waiting for you
If you choose me, I’m waiting for you
Always waiting
You will never know
What you have done to me
You will never know losing love from me
And you will never know a single day alone
Tiny heart
Stuck inside yourself
When will you open up
Your lips touched every hand but mine
If you choose me I’m waiting for you
If you choose me I’m waiting for you
Always waiting
11. MELTING (INTERLUDE)
12. TREASURE
Can I tell you a story
As we dance while the sun starts to bleed
Song of songs love is calling
Daughter wake up from your sleep
Refined I’ll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I’ll be treasured over all the earth
Bearing the gift of a new heart
Patience ablaze
I’m slowly burning
Refined I'll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I'll be treasured over all the earth
Refined I'll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I'll be treasured over all the earth
I am in awe and in shock
I’m in love and given away
I’m reserved with these words
Can I tell you a story
As we dance while the Son starts to bleed
Trees rejoice with the wind here
Hallelujah, Yeshua
Tonight I’ve become the most dazzling precious
I am treasured over all the earth
Just look at what he’s done
How he’s laying down his life
Take this life
oh most dazzling precious treasure
Tonight I’ve become the most dazzling precious treasure
I am treasured over all the earth
13. CIRCLE
Circle encircles the earth
Chance and choice break his heart
His innocent arm moves to save me and I am spared
His beautiful arm
Is bloody and cut off
His heart ripped out to show me he loved me
But I would not believe him
He did all that he could
I still would not believe him
I left his arms empty and tied
Outstretched for me until he died
Left his arms empty and tied
Outstretched for me until he died
No man shows greater love
Than when a man
Lays down his life
For his beloved
I left his arms empty and tied
Outstretched for me until he died
Left his arms empty and tied
Outstretched for me until he died
Here I’m alive
And I don’t have the right
He gave me the right
Costing him his life
New mercies in the morning
I believe
What if I believe you now
Could it ever change this heart
Forgive me, believe me
Please come back tonight
I believe
What if I believe you now
Could it ever change this heart
Forgive me, believe me
Please come back tonight
Come back to my life
I believe
What if I believe you now
Forgive me, believe me
Please come back tonight
14. ARISE
Tell the swine
We will make it out alive
There’s a note in the pages of a book
So sleep tonight
We’ll sleep dreamlessly this time
When we awake we’ll know that everything’s alright
Sing to me about the end of the world
End of these hammers and needles for you
Hold on to the world we all remember fighting for
There's still strength left in us yet
Hold on to the world we all remember dying for
There's still hope left in it yet
There's snow on your face
And your razor blade
The twilight is bruised
And there you lie
Sing to me about the end of the world
End of these hammers and needles for you
We’ll cry tonight
And in the morning we are new
Stand in the sun
We'll dry your eyes
Hold on to the world we all remember fighting for
There's still strength left in us yet
Hold on to the world we all remember dying for
There's still hope left in it yet
Sing, sing
Arise
Arise and be
All that you dreamed
All that you dreamed
(Hold on to the world we all remember fighting for)
Arise and be
All that you dreamed
All that you dreamed
(Hold on to the world we all remember fighting for)
Arise and be
All that you dreamed
All that you dreamed
(Hold on to the world we all remember fighting for)
